Now with the upgrades to my SBC 350 thinking the 1 5/8 headers are not going to cut it anymore. So what are my options for Large tube long tube headers? Thanks in advance guys!
 
Flowtechs are the low end...150.00 and they may or may not fit without modifications.... ARH (American Racing Headers) are top of the line...900.00+....They will fit like you made them yourself and last as long as the car....... Hedmans, Hookers, etc....fall in between ........You get what you pay for...
 
Going to order the Schoenfeld headers which are 1 3/4 primarys and 3 1/2 collectors. Should make an improvement over the flowjunks I have.
 
Well, I know in the LS1 (346 cu in) world 1 3/4 is a waste of money. 1 7/8 is the big ticket. Being it all cost the same and yet, you get a few more ponies with the 1 7/8. I got 1 3/4 SLP on my Trans am, so much money and the Kooks 1 7/8 cost about the same.
 
I think you would be surprised what the 1 5/8 can handle. I was running 11.35 et's and thought my 1 5/8 headers were hold me back and bought some Hooker Super Comps 1 3/4 and didn't
see any change. Measure your exhaust ports and they are probably smaller than you think. That being said I think the Schoenfeld headers are the best bang for the buck and great performance
and have run them the past 4 years.
